Field Trial Champion Cleestangates
Charmin Cassie
Field Trial Champion Cassie is a seriously hard hunting bitch that takes on all cover. After winning at Novice level Cassie went straight out and won her first ever Open Trial qualifying her for the 2020 90th Cocker Spaniel Championships. Unfortunately the following year's season was put on hold due to the Covid Pandemic. However when we were back trialing she was off to a flying start. In her second trial of the season we managed to win a run off for first place against the Queen's dog Wolferton Drama run by Ian Openshaw. Drama later went on to come 2nd in the Irish Championships and 1st the the British Championships.
Field Trial Champion Breckmarsh
Larson of Cleestangate
Toots has been a pleasure to work with, she's a very hard hunting bitch with tremendous of style and pace. We were delighted to make her up to a Field Trial Champion in 2023, gaining two firsts and a Guns Choice award in an Open Qualifier. Qualifying her for the kennel club Championships 2023 at Emblehope. Unfortunately she came in season and was unable to compete. She has a very nice pedigree with 3 championship winners, Kiltonbeck Rollo, Dandrew Druid and two time Championship Winner Brook Furlong of Tiptopjack.
We are very excited to see what she produces in the future.
FTW/OFTAW Gala Girl of Cleestangate
Molly was my first Cocker Spaniel who proved to be a fantastic bitch with wonderful natural ability. She has a very good pedigree and her full sister is Great Britain Field Trial Champion and Championship winner Abiann Flawless.
Molly was my first trialing dog and served me very well, winning her 3rd novice trial and getting open awards the following season. She is now fully retired.
